Didn't record it, but I once pulled it off on Class Wars. We were defending at stage 1 and, because it seemed impossible to win Spy vs Medic matchup, I tried to pull off Coffin strat for shit and giggles. Stayed near those boxes for 3 minutes straight before they realized what prevented them from capping.
What happened is that Creem got hit and so his model (along with its collision box and hitboxes) shifted away from the coffin. It's why you can see the Demo go inside the coffin as he swings again. The sword hit the wall.
Doing the Coffin strat on Halloween mode is obscene since the Coffin straight up looks like an in game prop on certain maps. I would definitely do a part 2 of this when Scream Fortress 2024 comes out.
@@Demanteq its already been almost a year since the coffin came out, and people still have no idea. Spirit Halloween's started setting up their stores a month ago, i dont think time is moving by as slow as you think
Spy: *hides in cardboard box* Enemy Team: *eviscerates Spy immediately* Enemy Team: Get your solid snake wannabe outta here, your strat is dead! Spy: *respawns* Dead you say? Spy *hides in coffin*
The box is bright and always has a team color associated with it, making it stand out on most maps. The coffin, on the other hand, is a neutral color and texture, able to blend into darker props on more maps, if in the right spot... also no team colors. Also at certain angles enemy sentries will target you, but shoot ABOVE YOU, being able to waste its ammo. It's insane.
@@foodaah it's not mocap, it you can see only the hands and head are tracked, and it's moving like a vrchat character, along with the camera that you can hold in vrchat
Oldest meme strategy? There is the meme strategy of spraying something "worth looking at" and then backsatabbing the distracted player as spy and sprays are older than the box trot taunt.
Best reason the coffin taunt is better than boxtrot It blends in 100% on all halloween maps, making detection near impossible, even if players know about it.
can i just say having your "avatar" be just the robo soldier instead of your main played class with 3 unusuals is SO refreshing. along with how animated this little guy is i love watching him emote
@@subhuman2433 They already made Prop Hunt in TF2 a while back, it was an absolute disaster because of sentries, airblast, ubercharge, etc. They'd have to restrict most of the classes for it to be viable.

@@MoreCreemSmile if you use the taunt while standing on a teleporter the coffin will disappear and the spy will be lying flat on the ground, use this info wisely
On 2fort, when this taunt was relatively new, I realized this, and so through the means of dealing damage and than healing him, we managed to get the spy to be almost completely across the room from where his coffin was. Good times.
That was when I started playing this game. I started playing during Love and War. It feels like I'd been playing for a rather long time by the time Box Trot came out though. So strange how time feels different the older you get.
Hold up, are you using VR/Mocap for your Robot Soldier Animations? That's a fucking genius way to get away with microstutters and weird artifacts in the motion.

See, this is why Spy needs an alternative disguise kit that is just various props instead of classes. Prop hunt for spies!
YO that'd be sick actually
In TFClassic the spy did have something similar in which he would play dead instead of current spy's cloaking.
this would be cool for non-spy/enemy players too, it'd be another way to reward familiarity with maps

Can we all just agree that unusuals make someone at least 10% more hateable
@NovaProspekt19 and an australium makes it 60%
I feel like Spy having the ability to disguise as props on any given map should have been a feature to his class from the very beginning.
+ can capture/block capture while disguised
- cannot move
- no critical hits
Maybe it could be an alt Disguise kit? You lose the ability to become players but you get a pick of a few props
Prop hunt as a feature would actually be really funny, it's not like it would be particularly broken either

Boxtrot walked so that coffin could walk and stop in 1 place where people can't see you
the robo soldier to cover for the shakiness the motion cap can give out is such a genious idea
For better strategy, bring other Box Spy as a red herring. They'll look for another box and not a coffin

As a Spy main, I love this. I'm going to start using this occasionally on PL and CP maps so that I can cause psychological warfare. :]

*BOX TAUNT WAS RELEASED BACK IN 2015? WHAT A FFFFFFFFFF MAN*
How to help your team win: use dirty coffin spots as spy
smart idea using VR to present the idea
they only found you out because speaking displays a icon above your head so that's that, otherwise you've capped that medieval mode
That's only if all-talk is enabled, otherwise they can't see the speech icon. I just think they wisened up haha
Only on community servers
